Abstract: In a device for minimising cracked gases in heat transfer and insulating liqs., (esp. transformer insulating liqs. and high temp. organic heat transfer liqs.),a vacuum compensated by the creation of a hydrostatic pressure is generated and maintained in a degassing vessel through which the insulating fluid flows as result of e.g. the thermal siphon effect, and the liq. is continually kept low in gas content. Also claimed is an arrangement for ensuring the function of the action principle according to the above on change in the liq. volume. The removal of the cracked gases from the system, even in cyclically (esp. daily) loaded transformers, without contact between the insulating liq. and other gases is ensured by means of a membrane between the transformer insulating liq. and a buffer liq. which communicates with an upper, closed vessel contg. an inert gas (esp. nitrogen).

Abstract: The sampling device includes a cylindrical barrel having an open circular front end and an open circular rear end terminating in a radially extending irregularly shaped finger grip flange. A plunger assembly slidably received within the barrel includes a circular brush and surrounding circular sponge for collecting cervical tissue and mucous. The brush and sponge collection assembly is detachably secured to the plunger shaft by a quick release connection. In use, the barrel is inserted by a female into her vagina with the sponge and brush disposed in a retracted condition within the barrel. After insertion, the plunger is moved to an extended condition and rotated to collect tissue and mucous samples on the brush and sponge. After the samples have been collected, the sponge and brush are detached from the plunger shaft and mailed in a sealed container to a laboratory for analysis.

Abstract: A method of mediation of traffic across a particular interface between the Advanced Intelligent Network operated by a local exchange carrier and an outside service provider is disclosed. The particular interface is defined between an application by a non-local exchange carrier service provider for some form of enhanced telephone service requiring use of the Advanced Intelligent Network and a shared execution environment interpreter on the other side of the interface. Mediation is conducted by the shared execution interpreter that is run on a local exchange carrier operated service control point. The shared execution interpreter enforces sufficient rules so that the local exchange carrier does not require knowledge of the details of implementation of the service provider's application. The methodology defines a unique transaction identifier that is defined and known on the local exchange carrier side of the interface. A table is created carrying the unique transaction identifiers with service process identifiers generated by various service provider applications. In this way, the shared execution environment interpreter can pass messages and instructions across the interface to the service provider's application that only reference the application's internally generated service process identifier. This isolates the service provider application from unnecessary information about the operation of the network and the operation of other service providers services. Mediation rules include testing of tables to determine whether a directory number referenced in a message request from a service provider application is a customer of the service provider, whether trunk group routing requests are valid for the service providers and whether any access to, or particular levels of access to, certain network elements are authorised for the service provider requesting same.

Abstract: A multi-layer preform for forming multi-layer containers includes an extruded upper portion having a first thickness which is adapted to form an upper portion of a container. The preform also includes an extruded intermediate portion having a second thickness thicker than the first thickness. The intermediate portion is connected with the upper portion and is adapted to form an intermediate body portion of the container. The preform also includes an extruded base portion having a third thickness thicker than the second thickness. The base portion is connected with the intermediate portion and is adapted form a base portion of the container. The portions of the preform are preferably formed from an inner layer and a barrier layer wherein the layers are co-extruded for forming the preform and an outer injection molded layer. In one embodiment, the inner layer includes a lip which overlaps the top edge of the barrier and outer layers. A multi-layer container is then formable from blow molding the preform.

Abstract: PCT No. PCT/DE95/01164 Sec. 371 Date May 20, 1997 Sec. 102(e) Date May 20, 1997 PCT Filed Aug. 18, 1995 PCT Pub. No. WO96/05866 PCT Pub. Date Feb. 29, 1996The invention concerns the preparation and use of a live tumour-cell vaccine which contains three additional genes prepared by genetic-engineering techniques: a) a gene coding for a cell-surface protein with immunostimulatory activity, b) a cytokin gene and c) the thymidine kinase gene. The fields of application of the invention are medicine and genetic engineering. The live vaccine proposed owes its effect to the fact that a synergistic anti-tumour response is induced by the multiple transfer of genes which code for immunostimulatory activity. This leads to reliable repulsion of the vaccine cells and enables cells capable of multiplying to be injected as a vaccine. As an additional safety marker, the vaccine cells are given the thymidine kinase gene which enables the vaccine cells to be selectively killed in vivo. The combinatory expression of genes with immunostimulatory activity improves the vaccine effect in comparison with prior art tumour-cell vaccines, and a live tumour-cell vaccine is more effective than a vaccine consisting of cells which are incapable of multiplying. The vaccine is intended for use in the genetic therapy of cancer patients.

Abstract: In the process of producing a high-purity gold alloy, (1) trace elements are added and (2) heat treatment is performed, so that the hardness is increased to a level approximately equivalent to that of 18-karat gold at relatively low working ratio, thereby eliminating the drawbacks associated with high-purity gold, that is, improving the workability, heat resistance, flaw resistance, durability, etc. A high-purity gold alloy according to the present invention can be hardened to a level approximately equivalent to that of 18-karat gold at relatively low working ratio, and the high-purity gold alloy thus hardened is not extremely softened by heat treatment performed as a post-treatment, such as brazing or welding. Even a cast article which is not subjected to plastic working has a hardness comparable to that of a hardened article which has been subjected to plastic working. <IMAGE>

In addition, it is desirable to prevent packages not having the pouring elements attached to them from leaving the gluing station. This is accomplished by the following steps: horizontal conveyance of successively arranged packages standing upright, separation of the packages and introduction of the separated packages into a gluing station depending on the presence of a pouring element, applying adhesive to the pouring element and gluing and pressing the pouring element to a predetermined area of each package.
